You know what i really want to see

I want ruby to see the same photo she did in Look Into My Eyes:

But after BAYD.

After she knows about everything both loveday and bradley went through.

I want her to see this picture after she knows why there is no colour in lovedays life

And i want her to realize how much LB must be hurting

I want her to know how much LB is hurting and realize that nobody can do anything about it.

All I want

Is to see kid LB, who had just moved to twinford, experience her first Christmas with snow actual snow, ( yea Bradley this is important shuddup). Just her waking up one morning, opening the curtains and literally screaming, then running outside in just her pyjamas because (and I quote) ' no Bradley, fuck you I'll be fine' then running back inside like five minutes later because 'fuck, why is it so fucking cold Bradley stop laughing' . Then after cuddles and hot chocolate (and eliminating the possibility of freezing to death, no I'm not being overdramatic Bradley, what are you talking about) she runs back outside, grabbing a coat, forgetting her shoes, gloves, hat, scarf etc... Which Bradley notices and therefore decides to warm up like ten hot water bottles and make a vat of hot chocolate (getting distracted because he keeps hearing LB laughing and for some completely unknown reason he can't stop grinning)

(All of this happens at around 4:30 am and Bradley, who usually kills anyone who wakes him up before at least 8:00 can't find reason to complain)

random spectrum worker: hey boss can you come into work

lb: i’m busy

worker: bradley baker isn’t here

lb, looking at the plane above her: i know

LB: you know bradley I'm jealous of you

Bradley: what, why?

LB: your partner is so much hotter than mine (walks away)

Bradley: but I am your-

Bradley: waiT YoU LITTLE SHIT

Bradley: We need nicknames

LB: what? No

Bradley: Birdie?

LB: No

Bradley: Babe ?

LB: No

Bradley: *holds up ring* Mrs Baker?

Bradley: twenty years ago, I married my best friend. Bradley: LB's still mad about it but hitch and I were drunk and we thought it was funny

LB: I was made for this.

Nothing catches me off guard.

Bradley: *exists*

LB:

LB: *whispers* shit

You guys have been really sweet about my really dorky Ruby Redfort posts recently so I thought I’d put in some work and get as much information as I can about everyone’s favourite code cracking, messy, doughnut eating Spectrum worker!

(Note: I am missing books 2 & 3 because I refuse to buy anything but hardback RR books, and there are other requirements because I’m a picky girl… so could someone else check those???)

Anyway, let’s begin today’s episode of Information about Blacker! Spoilers, maybe? Err on the side of caution!

Keep reading

Okay it’s unnecessary but I want to explain my alignment chart for Spectrum so here it goes

Gay:

- Distinguished: Sam Colt has never been caught tripping when it comes to romantic interests. He had a great long term relationship with this one guy, but they broke it off when their careers went in really different paths. Since then, he’s been happily single, although he’s dated occasionally.

- Functional: Blacker may be a mess when it comes to clothes, keeping tidy or eating doughnuts, but he’s actually pretty functional when it comes to dating. He’s completely oblivious when people like him, and you kinda have to spell it out for the poor guy, but he’s open to being in a relationship. He’s also a surprisingly good cook, so husband material right there, guys.

- Disaster: Miles Froghorn has the world’s biggest crush on his supervisor, Blacker, and everyone knows except Blacker. He has had reoccurring nightmares of accidentally calling Blacker ‘honey’ and has had to destroy notes when he realised he’s started doodling hearts in the margin while Blackers talking. The boy is a gay mess and LB is thinking of threatening to fire him unless he confesses to Blacker because she’s ‘sick of all the pining in this office, Miles.’

Bi

- Distinguished: LB has had a few girlfriends before she got together with Bradley, and is completely open about her past with him. She’s a pretty good judge of character so she’s never had a crazy ex and she was known for keeping a little bi flag on her desk when she wore colour. Ruby refuses to believe this and wants photographic proof, which she never gets, but she does receive the shock of her life when she sees LB wearing a bi flag as a cape during Spectrum’s annual pride week.

- Functional: Bradley’s had his share of bi freak outs but he’s generally good at getting himself back on track afterwards. However, he did have an embarrassing crush on Sam Colt after he was resuscitated by him, and sometimes gets teased about it. He and LB were very comfortable with each other’s bi-ness so they often liked to point out people on tv the other would find attractive.

- Disaster: Everyone thinks Hitch knows what he’s doing, but quite frankly the man is a catastrophe. He’s perfectly fine if he’s only casually into a person or not actually into them, but when he likes them he falls to pieces. Unfortunately, he also chooses people who don’t like him back. He’s also a mess in general, like when he cried for 7 hours when he found out Zuko had a girlfriend, or how he continually refuses to admit to LB that he blushed when he first saw Valerie Capaldi with dyed hair when they were 25 and she hadn’t yet committed homicide.

Lesbian

- Distinguished: Buzz is actually very smooth when she’s not wearing beige. She knocks it out the park in a blue dress and she’s known for stealing the hearts of Twinford’s wlw, although none of her colleagues know that at all. She is also unfortunately fending off a few male suitors but they’ll get the hint, one way or another.

- Functional: SJ is lowest brand of functional there is. She’s not the disaster lesbian because Ruby exists, but she’s one for dorky science based gifts to people she has crushes on, and cried because she thought that Margo Bardem was just that beautiful. She has a huge crush on a pretty single mother who visits her local grocery store, who is unbeknownst to her, Sadie Monroe.

- Disaster: Clancy cannot count on two hands and feet the amount of times Ruby talked about how she’s so gay. He’s had many conversations about Ruby’s crush on Del Lascoe and she won’t admit it, but she often watches terrible horror films because she’s into the final girl. She’s sometimes found herself minorly into guys, but it’s basically negligible and she now openly identifies as ‘most definitely’ a lesbian ever since meeting Bailey Roach. Sabina will not stop asking if she’s found a girlfriend yet, honey, you’d look so cute with Del! while Brant just casually mentions how proud he is of his lesbian daughter at work, and ignores the stares. She’s a lucky kid.

LB: what’s wrong with the way I dress?

Bradley: some people might say that all the black leather kind of makes you look like an evil villain.

Bradley: Uh, not me though, I think you look like a sexy motorcycle.

Hitch: Bradley... pull it together.

Did I draw a reverse version of the lake scene in BAYD?

Where the gunshot wound LB received was fatal/near fatal?

When I should have been revising for my exams?

... Maybe...

(yes I am aware LB looks way younger than she is and that the background is nonexistant but this is a sketch and I cba)

LB: Anyway, Bradley's hair is very soft, especially after he leaves the shower.

Hitch: uhmm, boss how does this relate to the plan?

LB: we'll get to it, sit back down
